Comprehensive landscape of active deubiquitinating enzymes profiled by advanced chemoproteomics


ABSTRACT: Enzymes that bind and process ubiquitin, a small 76 amino acid protein, have been recognized as pharmacological targets in oncology, immunological disorders and neurodegeneration. Mass spectrometry technology has now reached the capacity to cover the proteome with enough depth to interrogate entire biochemical pathways including those that contain DUBs and E3 ligase substrates. We have recently characterized the breast cancer cell (MCF7) deep proteome by detecting and quantifying ~10,000 proteins, and within this data set, we can detect endogenous expression of 65 deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs), whereas matching transcriptomics detected 78 DUB mRNAs. Since enzyme activity provides another meaningful layer of information in addition of the expression levels, we have combined advanced mass spectrometry technology, pre-fractionation and more potent/selective ubiquitin active-site probes with propargyl based electrophiles to profile 74 DUBs including distinguishable isoforms for five DUBs in MCF7 crude extract material. Competition experiments with cysteine alkylating agents, pan-DUB inhibitors ubiquitin combined with probe labelling revealed the proportion of active cellular DUBs directly engaged with probes by label-free quantitative (LFQ) mass spectrometry, demonstrating that USP13, 39 and USP40 are non-reactive to probe, reflecting no, low or restricted enzymatic activity under these cellular conditions. Our extended chemoproteomics workflow increases depth of covering the active DUBome, including isoform-specific resolution, and provides the framework for more comprehensive cell-based small molecule DUB selectivity profiling.
